Is truth relative If so is not that statement absolute?

The comment or assertion 'all truth is relative' is self-defeating in several ways which are similar although stated a little differently. If truth is relative then the statement that truth is relative cannot itself be absolute and therefore true objectively. Also, as correctly suggested in the question 'truth is relative' is itself a self-contradictory absolute statement which cannot be true if truth is indeed relative.

The statement "rest and motion are relative terms" means that whether an object is considered at rest or in motion depends on the observer's frame of reference.

Why would a relativist have problem giving a justified response to morality and religion?

The relativist (who holds that there is no absolute, universal truth and that all propositions have only relative or limited application) cannot give any justified statement on morality or religion, because he acknowledges no standard or basis for making judgments. If as the relativist holds there is no absolute truth, any moral or religious statements are meaningless and cannot be justified. Any statement the relativist puts forward is nullified by the relativist's own claim that no statement or viewpoint is absolutely true. The relativist's statement might be true relative to himself, but not relative to another individual.
